Santa Monica, California

Santa Monica is a beachfront city in western Los Angeles County, California, United States. Situated on Santa Monica Bay, it is bordered on three sides by the city of Los Angeles – Pacific Palisades to the north, Brentwood on the northeast, West Los Angeles on the east, Mar Vista on the southeast, and Venice on the south. The Census Bureau population for Santa Monica in 2010 was 89,736.

Due in part to an agreeable climate, Santa Monica became a famed resort town by the early 20th century. The city has experienced a boom since the late 1980s through the revitalization of its downtown core, significant job growth and increased tourism. The Santa Monica Pier and Pacific Park remain popular destinations.

  • BPOE building, Richard (guest) wrote 8 years ago:
    This building was built in 1927 by the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, Santa Monica Lodge 906. To this day, big letters that say BPOE are on the side and front of the building in addition to being carved in stone over the front door. But the depression hit the Elks hard and by 1933 they could no longer afford the building. It was sold and converted into a 78 unit apartment building, called the Carlton Apartments. It is now a Landmarked property, well maintained at 3001 S. Main St, corner of Pier Ave. in the Ocean park district of Santa Monica.
